Cant beat it for value...
Liked: Chose to stay here for convenience so we could attend an event nearby and follow up with a walk in the Lee Valley the next day. Great location for both. Hadn't stayed in YHA for many years so were pleasantly surprised to do it without younger family this time - and would happily do so again. Close to the train station for our event. Countryside location was excellent with walks on the doorstep. Room was spacious with own shower and toilet and clean comfortable bedding. Brought or own towels. Slept well with occasional banging of doors but to be expected. Got caught up with the breakfast queue in the morning with the large groups of school children but didnt mind that as it confirmed it was poular and well used. Could have eaten a half an hour earlier or later to avoid them. Had 1 continental and 1 cooked breakfast. It was hot weather so great that there was a water station for refills. A good outside seating area and plenty of parking. No curfew and could get back late with our own door fob. Would take out membership with all the benefits.
Disliked: Could have been a better choice for continental breakfast by adding a yoghurt and some fruit. No coffee, only tea. Cooked veggie breakfast was small but more was offered once the groups had dispersed, so maybe it was due to that? For that reason would eat when the groups are not around. Would prebook next time with benefits of discount for membership.

Liked: Fantastic location, excellent staff, great breakfast, wonderful room, good parking, brilliant price.
Disliked: 1) It's quite annoying that Booking.com lists this as having free WiFi, but when you turn up you realise that's only in the foyer and not in the lodges. It wouldn't cost much to get some WiFi repeaters to get the lodges connected. 2) It was a warm day, so we would expect the room to be a bit warm in the evening - we had been in London and arrived back to the room about 1am - it was absolutely sweltering, even with the fan on and window open, we were all sweating and had a terrible night's sleep. I can't overstate how hot it was. My partner seems to be suffering from heat stroke! I know these hot days are unusual, and there's not much they can do, so it's not really a criticism, but a portable air con unit might be worth investing in.

Did the job for a...
Liked: Good location for travelling into London on the train. Good kitchen. Good shower.
Disliked: Noise from people in the adjacent room. Lack of soft furnishings means noise echos especially from doors closing.

Family stay
Liked: I like the location, the fact that all the beds had clean bedding and sheets. The location was secure and quiet.
Disliked: The fact that there were no towels in the room.
